Let $I$ be the incenter of a triangle $ABC$. The lines passing through $A$ and parallel to $BI, CI$ meet the perpendicular bisector to $AI$ at points $S, T$ respectively. Let $Y$ be the common point of $BT$ and $CS$, and $A^*$ be a point such that $BICA^*$ is a parallelogram. Prove that the midpoint of segment $YA^*$ lies on the excircle of the triangle touching the side $BC$.
